Things to do for April 15, 2010

The Weekender

Endless Tequila, Bus Parties and a Crab Feed

Thursday

HAPPY HOURING

Burger Bar's Half-Off Happy Hour

For three hours this afternoon, you'll get half off all 24 draft beers (including one from the discerning
boozehounds at Speakeasy), as well as $4 well drinks and $5 pork potato skins, quesadillas and sliders. Or,
better yet, leave all the math to your accountant.

Sailing the Bay

Sailing season is back. Reacquaint yourself, courtesy of a 45-minute cruise of the Bay with the guys from
Discover Sailing. Afterward, you can personally congratulate the BMW Oracle Racing team on being the first
American team to win the America's Cup since '92. Do it for your country.

Saturday

You enjoy the modern things (case in point: the robot butler), but occasionally you've been known to dabble
in old-school classics like LPs. On Saturday, Amoeba is presenting you with an incentive: limited-edition
record releases from the Beastie Boys, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the like, as well as a chance to win your own
turntables. Your iPod might get jealous.

Sunday

Tequila. Tamales. These are good things. And when the latter are hand-selected by tamale makers from as far
as LA and Healdsburg (including the Mission's La Cocina), and the former is endless (and available in
margarita form), you have the recipe for a great thing. This event is that great thing.

This BYOB tour of off-the-beaten-path destinations will uncover San Francisco's lesser-known attractions:
sundials, battery forts, even Alamo Square's shoe garden. (It's a garden. With shoes. And plants growing out
of them. No, you're not hallucinating.) Your steed: an old school bus decked out with couches and a dance
floor. Your move, MUNI.

Nettie's isn't just bringing back their Sunday crab feed, they're also making it a daily affair. So you can
get a whole cracked crab (steamed or oven roasted), two of six sides (our favorites: skillet cornbread and
potatoes) and a chocolate-dipped whoopie pie any night of the week. Make that every night of the week...
